      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at BELAY (Portland, OR) in Aug 2023

      Interview

      First of all, the job is only for $18-$20 /hr. Then they send all kinds of emails and hoops to jump through, to include some skills assessment. I do all of it. The next day, I receive several messages, Text Messages, emails, saying that they havent recieved any of my responses?! So i go through it all, ALL over again the next day. I cant do it on my phone because they need a PDF of my very impressive resume. So I go on my laptop, send them my resume, only to find that I must also attach a PDF of an "email example". I ask 3 different ways what they are asking for - text, email, and I even sent an email into this slot asking what they want from me. The next day I receive a message stating that I did not pass the skills assessment and I am no longer to be considered for the position. OK, boomer.

      Question 1

      It was an unfair skills assessment. 12 minutes to complete 50 questions.

      We are sorry to hear you did not have a positive application experience with BELAY. We make every effort to comprehensively assess all applicants, aiming to gain a holistic understanding of their skillset beyond just reviewing their resume. Nonetheless, we are transparent that our process may not suit everyone and can require a time investment for completion. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors!

      I applied online. I interviewed at BELAY

      Interview

      The application process is strenuous- several example tasks, personality & cognitive assessments, one way interview questions, & a zoom interview. Each step has a time limit , typically 24-48 hours for completion. Every BELAY corporate employee with whom I interacted was incredibly kind and helpful! I would encourage those applying to remember that if you are offered a place with BELAY, you still need to apply to client openings through their job board and meet with the account manager associated with that client. I placed within 5 days of my start date, but I believe the typical timeline is 1-3 weeks.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and congratulations on your offer! We’re grateful you highlighted both the thoroughness of the process and the kindness of the team members you interacted with along the way. At BELAY, our application process is intentionally comprehensive. Because our team members serve high-level leaders and organizations, we take great care to ensure the right fit for both the contractor and the client. The assessments, sample tasks, and interviews are designed to give candidates an opportunity to showcase their skills while also helping us understand how they may best serve our clients. You also shared an important point about the next step after joining the BELAY network. Contractors do apply to opportunities through our internal job board and connect with the Client Success Consultant supporting that client to ensure the match is a strong one for everyone involved. While timelines can vary depending on client needs and availability, we’re glad to hear you were able to find an engagement quickly. Thank you again for your thoughtful review and for encouraging others who may be considering the process. We’re excited to have you as part of the BELAY community and wish you great success in your engagements ahead. Warmly, The BELAY Team

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at BELAY (Virginia Beach, VA) in Oct 2023

      Interview

      The interview process is quite substantial. You go through a 3 part interview, that includes a test, video response questions and a final face to face interview. They only hire 1% of all applicants per month so it is very competitive. Don’t take the quiz lightly, it’s the first step of the interview process but if you do not score at a particular level, you won’t move on to the next step of the interview process.

      How do you handle a complicated client relationship?
